Fatty acid synthase (FASN), the enzyme responsible for de novo synthesis of free fatty acids, is up-regulated in many cancers. FASN is essential for cancer cell survival and contributes to drug resistance and poor prognosis. However, it is not expressed in most nonlipogenic normal tissues. Thus, FASN is a desirable target for drug discovery. Although different FASN inhibitors have been identifi...
The pharmacological modulation of proteins and molecules related up-regulation of FASN in precursor lesionsmight represent an obligatory to cancer is an important goal for translational science. Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a complex dimeric protein that converts acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA into palmitic acid in a NADPH-dependent reaction in mammalian cells (Maier et al., 2006). Many cancers pr...
Aberrations within the phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) pathway occur in greater than 45% of ovarian carcinomas. The PI3K cascade transmits signals from ErbB receptors downstream to S6 and 4EBP1, which are involved in protein biosynthesis. Many ovarian carcinomas reveal hyperactivation of ErbB1 (epidermal growth factor receptor) or ErbB2 (HER2/neu). Unfortunately, the benefit of anti-ErbB drugs...
Expression of the HER2 oncogene is increased in approximately 30% of human breast carcinomas and is closely correlated with the expression of fatty acid synthase (FASN). In the present study, we determined the mechanism by which FASN and acetyl-CoA carboxylase α (ACCα) could be induced by HER2 overexpression. SK-BR-3 and BT-474 cells, breast cancer cells that overexpress HER2, expressed higher ...
Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is overexpressed in aggressive and metastatic prostate cancer (PCa) and induces PCa cell proliferation. Androgens mediate lipid synthesis through acetyl-CoA carboxylase-1 (ACC1) and fatty acid synthase (FASN). We investigated the Cav-1-mediated lipid synthesis in the development of castration resistance, and identified novel therapeutic opportunities. Using the PBCre+;Ptenlox...
Background: Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a key lipogenic enzyme regulated by various factors including estrogens. Results: GPER mediates FASN expression and activity induced by estrogens in cancer cells. Conclusion: Fatty acid biogenesis is regulated by estrogens through GPER. Significance: GPER may be included among the transduction mediators involved by estrogens in regulating FASN expressio...
The quality of fat is an important factor in defining the quality of meat. Fat quality is determined by the composition of fatty acids. Among lipid metabolism-related genes, including fatty acid synthesis genes, several genetic variations have been reported in the bovine fatty acid synthase (FASN), stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD), sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP1), and GH genes...
BACKGROUND Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is an enzyme synthesized by the liver and plays an important role in lipogenesis. The present study aimed to investigate whether serum FASN concentration may provide a direct link between HIV and/or HCV viral infections and lipid metabolic disorders commonly observed in HIV/HCV-infected patients. METHODS We evaluated serum FASN concentration in 191 consec...
The prostate cancer (PCa) cell lines LNCaP, PC-3, and DU-145 express peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) but its role in PCa is unclear. Thiazolidinediones (TZDs), a family of PPARγ activators and type 2 anti-diabetic drugs, exhibit anti-tumor apoptotic effects in human PCa cell lines. Likewise, pharmacological inhibitors of fatty acid synthase (FASN), a metabolic enzyme highly...
Voluntary running is a robust inducer of adult hippocampal neurogenesis. Given that fatty acid synthase (FASN), the key enzyme for de novo fatty acid biosynthesis, is critically involved in proliferation of embryonic and adult neural stem cells, we hypothesized that FASN could mediate both exercise-induced cell proliferation in the subgranular zone (SGZ) of the dentate gyrus (DG) and enhancemen...
